National security

National security is everyone’s business...


The Tribune founder, the visionary Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, had tasked the future generation of The Tribune overseers to ensure dissemination of information, knowledge and learning. It was his belief that a society imbued with the outlets and platforms of information was an empowered society, capable of discussing reasonably and rationally great issues of the day and that such knowledge would help society sort out its collective dilemmas.
The Annual Lecture Series is a modest attempt to carry forward that mandate of the Founder. It is increasingly being recognised that national security is too serious a matter to be left to only the politicians and generals. And, national security is no longer just a matter of armies facing each other across dug-up trenches; today, national security and national defence are all-inclusive problems. The new tools of social media have empowered the common citizen. Hence, our effort to involve the citizens — and the readers — in understanding India’s defence.
